Our Blog

We originally started this blog (years ago) to keep track of the every day things in our lives that we didn't want to forget but knew that we would in time. As life got in the way, we posted less and less until March 2010 when Matthew's arrival rocked our world. Now we use this blog to let everyone know how Matthew is progressing and the big events going on at the Hoy House. We are so appreciative of everyone who has read our story and has thought and prayed for Matthew and for us.

Also Adjusting

Change is hard! I am not the only one struggling with change right now. This past weekend, we moved Alyssa's bed to Austin, moved her into Jackson's room to share the bunk bed and moved Matthew and his crib into what used to be Alyssa's room.

Matthew has been struggling with that move. Monday night he awoke crying every couple of hours. Tuesday at naptime, he absolutely refused to nap. That made for a not-so-great afternoon/evening! Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights, Matthew has awoken in the middle of the night (about 1am) screaming as loud as I've ever heard him. After realizing that he isn't going to drift off on his own (about 5-10 minutes), we go check on him, comfort him and leave him to continue screaming for about 10 more minutes. Not good. I am hoping he adjusts to the change very soon...for all of our sakes!
